Please see [ http://www.ncchelp.org/ ] if you have no clue what this is about...


Here are some important facts for you to consider about this lawsuit. Nissan has been the
registered trademark holder of the name Nissan since 1959. A recent study
shows that 92% of Internet users expect to find Nissan, the car company, at
[ www.nissan.com. ] A court has already found that Nissan computer set out to
confuse the public by altering its website to make it appear to be sponsored
by Nissan Motors and by diverting potential and actual Nissan customers,
like you, to other automobile sites. Most importantly, the court found that
Nissan Motors is likely to prevail at trial.

Nissan tried to resolve this dispute without suing Mr. Nissan and we have no
desire to put Nissan Computer out of business. However, he demanded a $15
million payment to release the nissan.com name. In good faith, Nissan
Motors even reserved the name nissancomputer.com for Nissan Computer so that
it would have a website that matches its business name.

We hope you understand the steps we took to protect our valuable trademark
and to ensure that individuals like you would not be confused or misled by
the Nissan Computer website.
